As we move into the warmer days of May I want to remind all students of our dress code - which is available (for review) from each teacher. Dresses and shorts - shorter than mid-thigh - are not acceptable for school. Tops must cover from shoulder to waist (no bare midriff). Any attire that is very lowcut or exposes undergarments is unacceptable for school. While many outfits are very cute ... they may not be acceptable for school. It may be helpful to bring a change of clothing if you are in doubt about the suitability of an outfit.
There will be no classes for students on Thursday and Friday - May 2nd and 3rd as teachers throughout the District and Province will be involved in association meetings and subject council days.
We are happy to announce that Yordi Eric is this year's school nominee for the Turn Around Achievement Award. Yordi will be recognized at a dinner at the Rodd Inn, Miramichi on May 27th. Congratulations to Yordi on this recognition from her teachers.

We would ask that parents return the survey that was given to your child last week. Deadline for the return of this survey is Monday, March 25th. This is an important opportunity to provide feedback on your child's educational experience and we hope that many parents will let their voices be heard.
